Man Tasered while attempting to save infant son from a house fire!

bullshit if the gutless swine had any BALLS hed told the guy to stay put and go in there HIMSELF to get the kid. if the dad came along, so be it but SAVE THE KID. NOT A HERO.

Uh...suicide is actually a prosecutable offense. You CAN be arrested for attempting it.

Prove that statement and cite the law then fucktard!

all 30 seconds of it

If I was that guy I'd probably burn the cops house down and watch his loved one burn alive then tase him and say it was for your own good.. Cops need to start being held accountable for their actions even if the coos say its "justified". When will people say enough!?!?!?!?

I'd run in the house too. I would known where the baby was and the layout of my own house better than anyone.

This is a really sad thing.

These worthless piggies should be sleeping on the street for their crimes against humanity, not living off of my taxes like a bunch of parasites.

The Officer will get a award for saving a life!

Not as I understand it, please cite.

I WOULD HAVE "GONE IN" anyway. The dilemma is if another person goes in, more rescuers have to risk THEIR lives trying to save MORE people. Thereby putting even more lives at risk.

He shouldn't have been tazed. And morally, the cop should have been a "hero". That's his damn job. But if someone would have been hurt or killed trying to save both the baby and cop, protocol would have been breached. It sucks. It just plain sucks.

(though, imo, suicide is a bad choice.)

Illegal to whom, the "state"? At this time in OUR country, I say screw 'em. They want OUR money or they want us dead.
The enemy , apparently, is not bound by the OUR Constitution.
Free country? Look, again. Things have changed radically.
And, it appears it's not over.
(ok, rant over for today. Sorry.)

:AGRREEE:

As shocking as this story is, it's a perfect datum as to show the real core belief of whether people are free to think or open & primed for state imposed servitude.

I cannot fkin believe that anyone in the US would defend the idea that a Government Officer should hold the power to decide whether a man is allowed to save his own child from burning to death.

True shame on any person who justifies this level of servitude.

And he will keep it locked up inside of him. Life's roads have taken him somewhere unimaginable and there is no way back.

Whatever happened to free will and freedom?

Oh right, they are flushed down the toilet along with your worthless country.

I would have to pay that officer a visit and a taste of his own medicine.

Depends on where you live, but suicide is a felony in many U.S. states...

Agreed. I would have gone in myself if he were my child. Hell, even my step kids. It's human mature to protect the young. Ecspecially if they're yours. I agree with everything this person just said. Though it wouldn't be right to punish the officers child. Though he shouldn't blamed cuz his dad or whom ever is a complete jackass sob.

Same here.
Check!

You must not have read what you linked to.

SNIP

By the early 1990s only two states still listed suicide as a crime, and these have since removed that classification. [link to en.m.wikipedia.org]

Now, two states does not mean many, as you have asserted; moreover, you did not cite the law.

from the link; ..."By the early 1990s only two states still listed suicide as a crime, and these have since removed that classification."

So that means kill a baby? Riiiiiiigh

My opinion is, the cop made a decision.. stopping someone running into the house that was up in flames... No pointing fingers at who is the blame. You don't know how badly the house was on fire. If it was plausible, the cop would have gone in himself. Believe it, when I say, there are good cops and they care. TV has made the police look like the bad guy to get a good story. Plus, our society is into SUING anybody!What good would a lawsuit do?

tough shit on the firefighters if he went in, its their damn job so their lives are at risk anyway. I agree with you man it does suck.

^THIS!!!!

Yeah! thats what im saying, who CARES about the circumstances, just save the baby. Fucking police FUCKED UP so they have to say some BS to cover their asses, talking about "things don't add up', fUCK LEO's!

Brief i dont get u buddy. Everything u say on her makes me believe that u r 100% for our freedoms but u always come to the defense of the police state. Now dont get me wrong... A lot of times i agree with u. I mean any title that says "innocent protestor gets arrested for breathing" usually translates to some idiot wanting to push all buttons to get arrested on video so they cry about it. But there are cops that overstep the authority we give them. Even if u are or were a cop, u have to know that is true.

I am not directly refering to this story. There is a lot unknown. I just know that if there is a house fire that my kids dont survive in, they would be reporting my death too because i would die before i ever left my kids in a burning house. They took that from him. Right or wrong there is a morality issue here.

THIS ^^
